The Ashes - Page 3

I was watching it with my kids. It was very exciting. Did you get a chance to have a peek?

Hagar · 12-06-2006, 11:42 PM

Yup, I was lucky enough to be at home doing "paperwork" and saw about the last two hours!

Aliantha · 12-07-2006, 12:08 AM

Really? What sort of paperwork? lol

The last couple of hours were the best couple, since we were batting. I got to watch the full days play, so I considered myself quite fortunate as it all unfolded.

Aliantha · 12-17-2006, 11:46 PM

WoooooHoooooooooooo!!!!!

Australia has won back the ashes!

Better luck next time you pommies.

Memo to England: Test matches are meant to go for FIVE days.

Oh Geez - where are the mods??? this is obviously mistakenly placed in the Sports Forum.

It's neither Current, nor an Event, and there's no Home Base in cricket, despite their calling that funny looking thing a "bat." I looked in the rules.

So it stays here, until we can come up with something better.

Thinking ...

no. Entertainment doesn't work either.

If they would talk about what to have during the tea interval, I'd think about moving it to food and drink, but neither Vegemite nor Marmite are food so ...

Like I said. It stays here.

Who removed my post suggesting that some people simply have no class and why was it removed?

Undertoad · 12-30-2006, 06:06 AM

Nobody and cos it wasn't?

Aliantha · 12-30-2006, 05:59 PM

It was there UT...unless there was some glitch in the system, however, it did appear on the screen after I clicked the post quick reply button.

Oh well, doesn't matter. You lot will never understand the finer nuances of the sport anyway.

As cricket lover of years and years standing (I used to book my holidays to coincide with tests) this has been a depressing few weeks, but the Aussie team have been outstanding. I guess England didn't stand a chance when the Aussies are on such wonderful form.

Respect to them. Cancel the open top bus....

Aliantha · 12-30-2006, 06:23 PM

Better luck next time Czin.

At least Warne wont be in the side.

CzinZumerzet · 12-31-2006, 06:07 AM

I understand he is coming here to play for Hampshire...? But definitely one of the greatest ever, hero material, and lovely thighs...

Aliantha · 12-31-2006, 10:27 PM

He's been playing there for a few seasons now I believe. Can't say I'm very enamoured of him as a man, but as a cricketer he's brilliant. Actually, as a man, I think he's a pathetic example.
